The Player Account Cloud Gem uses an Amazon Cognito user pool. If you created your
project
using a version of Lumberyard earlier than 1.9, update it by opening a command prompt
window in the \dev directory and entering the following command.

lmbr_aws project update

Create or update the deployment
stack. Be sure the CloudGemPlayerAccount resource group is
added to your deployment. If your deployment doesn't have the
CloudGemPlayerAccount resource group, make sure that the Cloud Gem
Player Account gem is enabled in the Project Configurator.

At a command prompt, enter the following command to update the deployment access
stack.

lmbr_aws deployment update-access

This ensures that the CloudGemPlayerAccount resource group is
correctly linked to the PlayerAccess identity pool in the deployment
access stack.

Integrate the gem into your game menu. We recommend that you include the following
features:

A global signout – This security
feature allows players to invalidate an account's tokens across all devices
if a device has been lost or stolen. The sample level shows how to offer
this as a standalone feature. If the previous password was compromised and
already used to obtain authentication tokens, you can also have the menu
automatically globally sign out after a password change. To implement this
functionality, do the following:

When you receive confirmation that the password change has
succeeded, send the following event.

EBUS_EVENT(CloudGemPlayerAccountRequestBus, GlobalSignOut, username)

Email verification – An email
verification step ensures that email can be used to recover account access
if a password has been forgotten. You can customize the content of the
verification emails by using Lambda triggers. To add a new Lambda trigger to
the AWS CloudFormation template, use the LambdaConfig property of
PlayerUserPool in the
dev\Gems\CloudGemPlayerAccount\AWS\resource-template.json
file. For more information, see Customizing User Pool Workflows by Using AWS Lambda
Triggers.
